'''Fire''' is a [[hazard]] in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]]. Most Pikmin types are not resistant to fire, and if they touch a fire source, the top of their stems will begin to burn up, they will run around in a panicked state, and if not saved, will eventually succumb and die. They can be saved by being [[whistle]]d at. [[Red Pikmin]], [[Bulbmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]] are completely immune to fire, making them necessary to handle [[obstacle]]s or [[Enemy|enemies]] that can produce or are under fire. [[Ice Pikmin]] burn quicker than other types.

[[Leader]]s are not normally invulnerable to fire hazards: they will take [[Health|damage]] and be knocked back if they touch fire. However, by salvaging the [[Scorch Guard]], they will be rendered completely immune to fire. However, they can still be stunned by the [[Titan Dweevil]]'s [[Flare Cannon]].

In ''Pikmin 2'', Pikmin that are on fire will not be affected by explosions.{{cite web|https://clips.twitch.tv/EvilPlumpPrariedogDAESuppy|Twitch clip|Twitch|published={{date|29|February|2020}}|retrieved={{date|29|February|2020}}}}

==Scorch Guard==
{{main|Scorch Guard}}

The Scorch Guard is a [[spacesuit]] upgrade in {{p2}}, {{p3}} and {{p4}}. After it is collected, the playable leaders will gain immunity to all sorts of fire attacks, just like Red Pikmin. The exception is the [[Titan Dweevil]]'s Flare Cannon, since it will stun leaders, even if it does not harm them.

==Red Pikmin==
{{main|Red Pikmin}}

Red Pikmin are resistant to fire, meaning they will not be affected by any flame and will act as if it does not exist. [[Bulbmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]] also share this trait. This makes them quite valuable when fighting against fire-related [[enemies]] and overcoming fiery [[obstacle]]s. Red Pikmin can also pick up [[fire starter]]s to burn [[dried plant]]s and light bonfires. They can also be used in combat against some enemies, such as melting the ice on a [[Frosty Bulborb]]'s back.

==In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series==
{{external|fire attacks|[[smashwiki:Flame|SmashWiki]]|SmashWiki.png}}
Some fighters in the [[Super Smash Bros. series|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] have attacks that can set their opponents on fire. Olimar is one of them &ndash; when a Red Pikmin attacks an enemy, it burns them. Similarly to the ''Pikmin'' series, Red Pikmin can completely resist any attack with a fire property, by taking no damage and not flinching, although other Pikmin types do not take any extra damage from fire attacks.
